For the next two weeks, the Public Works Department is waiving restrictions for collection of tree limbs, brush and other storm debris for residents who pay the full refuse fee. In addition, restrictions are being waived for collection of flood-damaged furniture and household items.
Residents who do not pay the full refuse fee and businesses will need to use their private hauler.
For small household items such as books, residents are asked to box or bag the items in order to allow for quicker collection.
For debris, residents are asked to place the debris at the edge of their property line, but do not block sidewalks or allow the debris to extend into the roadway. Do not mix yard waste with other debris or garbage. Tree stumps, root balls and hazardous waste are not collected.
Automated collection of trash is expected to remain on schedule, but residents should be aware that loose leaf collection and yard waste may not stay on schedule because crews will be assisting with storm cleanup and recovery.
